St. Patrick’s dinner NOT corned beef

[Anonymous]

No one but me would eat corned beef and cabbage if I cooked some in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day. Last year I made fish and chips. (And lime jello for dessert!)

Any fresh ideas?

Shepherds pie?

We do lamb stew, soda bread, and apple cake because those were specialties of our Irish Grandma.

beef stew with soda bread

Pototo soup

Breakfast for dinner (full Irish)
Stew
Shepherd's Pie
Salmon with mashed potatoes and fries (because they always serve potatoes multiple ways)

I'd be lying if I said I was crazy about any of it, though.

I was soooo disappointed with boxty but I can see it being redeemed with a topping of stew.

I was going to say Fish and Chips. Irish soda bread and beef stew?

Lamb stew. Yeah, make that!

Lamb stew if you have time, shepherd's pie if not, rack of lamb if you want to be fancy

Potatoes, good cheese, soda bread.

Steak pie. Basically I make a guiness beef stew but thicker and put it in a pie crust.

You could also do a baked salmon which Is really more Irish than corned beef. Bake it with Irish butter and some herbs. Serve with mashed potato’s, boxty or colcannon.

If you’re amibituous, sticky toffee pudding for dessert or just a butter cake.
